Liverpool moved closer to winning the Premier League title after a 1-0 win against Leicester City. Trent Alexander-Arnold came off the bench and scored the only goal of the match, helping his team secure a big victory.
Liverpool Needs Just 3 More Points for the Title
With this win, Liverpool now has 79 points from 33 games. They only need 3 more points to become Premier League champions. On the other hand, this defeat has pushed Leicester City into the relegation zone.
Arnold’s Goal Made the Difference
Trent Alexander-Arnold entered the game in the 71st minute, replacing Conor Bradley. Just five minutes later, in the 76th minute, he scored the winning goal. His quick impact was the key to Liverpool’s victory.
Arsenal’s Win Delays Liverpool’s Celebration
Earlier, second-place Arsenal beat Ipswich Town 4-0. Because of that win, Liverpool has to wait a little longer to officially lift the trophy.
Points Table and Upcoming Matches
Arsenal has 66 points from 33 games. If Liverpool beats Tottenham next week, they will become league champions with four games still left to play.
Arsenal’s Next Match Could Help Liverpool
Before that, Arsenal will play against Crystal Palace FC. If Arsenal loses or draws in that match, Liverpool will win the title, even before their game against Tottenham.
